Arsène Wenger: Sead Kolašinac Will Make Us More Dangerous Going Forward

After officially being announced as an Arsenal player yesterday afternoon, manager Arsène Wenger began talking about his first signing of the summer.Sead Kolašinac joins the Gunners from Schalke on July 1st following the expiration of his contract, as Wenger looks to make a statement of intent this season after his two-year contract extension.

In an official interview with the Arsenal Player, the Arsenal boss went on to say that;

“He is a very compact as a player, very strong and determined in the challenges, he is good in the air as well, so overall I believe he has all the attributes to adapt to English football.”

“The game here is very demanding physically on the commitment front and he has the ingredients to adapt to that. What he will give us is the fact that he is a player who can give assists, who can go forward, who can contribute good crosses.”

“It is very important that we have that as well, because we have Kieran Gibbs, we have Nacho Monreal and we have him. But Nacho plays a lot now in central defence and in a three-man system, I see him in there. So overall, I think [Kolašinac] can contribute a lot to help us to be more dangerous going forward.”
